Hello guys!

My name is Patrick and I have been unfortunately blessed with a rigged Accent as my first car. Don't get me wrong, the car itself is pretty sweet but mine wasn't.
Before I bought the car I knew absolutely nothing about cars, and with all the things that have broken in this car I feel I know a proficient amount about cars

The rear suspension went out, the clutch died while going on a highway, coolant leaked from new clutch because of a bad mechanic... Yeah i'm pretty much broke now sad.gif
I've started fixing it up, the lady who had it before me was quite a dunce... scraping the car against walls and such. I'm thinking of restoring it to its former glory, starting with interior/exterior mods and whats not, but definitely trying to subtly make it better.

So far I have fixed rear hatch light, and its whole hatch-light hub thing (She cracked it in half O.O), and more to come!

If anyone is interested in my progress I can take pictures and what not, make it feel like a important project haha

Anyways, thanks for reading my rant and I hope you could actually understand it!

Patrick

We will be able to help you with any issues that come up.

Sure, might as well post up some pics of the progress. It's always fun to follow a build, even if it's just a bunch of repairs.

Hehe after you say that it makes it sound lame tongue.gif
But yeah i'll take some pictures of car in current state, and then more while it gets fixed up.

Quick question... Replace window seal clamps: leave to pros or is it relatively easy?

Not sure what clamps you are referring to.

More people will probably get useful information out of you posting your repair progress than a $30k show car or race car build, even though it's less glamorous. We can all relate lol.
